48.

48 hours.

That's how long the doctors just gave to my mom. For her life expectancy.

I keep real life shit off the forums as much as I can, but fuck, I'm upset ok.

Posting this somehow makes it feel better. Now I'm going to go sit with my mom.

Oh man

In a way, though, that's a blessing -- you do get those 48 hours with her. When my grandma died, it was sudden. Had I known it was going to happen, there's no way I would have had a problem with missing class a few days to drive home and spend them with her.

I'm going to get some sleep now.

I hope she can take another 7 or 8 hours, if she goes while I sleep I won't forgive myself. On the other hand, I don't know if I can handle being there when it happens.

I'll take it as it comes. Best you can hope for in these circumstances really.

On the bright side, I did meet a girl and we're getting along really well. She understands what's going on and is giving me some time alone. I just wish she could've met my mom.. but who knows.. still might.

She's the only thing that's keeping me from breaking down right now.

You're far too cool of a dude for this to be happening, bud.

I also extend the offer of a PM, should you need. I've been here before, I just hope I can help.

Welp, she's smashed the 48 hour deadline as of several hours ago. Go mom.

Every extra hour is a blessing but I'm not kidding myself, it will likely be this week and before the weekend.
